Southwest Airlines to Acquire AirTran; Spreading Low Fares Farther 6:55 am - PR Newsw
You just described Delta Air Lines between 1926-1990. -
Frontier almost pulls a "Sully"
Not really all that uncommon, just uncommon in the media when the plane lands uneventfully. Delta had two dual engine bird strikes the last few years... 1 in Rome on a 767-400 (pilots on that one got the ALPA superior airmanship award 2 years ago) and 1 in Nice on a 767-300. I've been shown... -
Delta North AE
If you are awarded something then it will show up in icrew/ecrew... otherwise the results are posted on the Deltanet under Pilot Resources & Scheduling. -
Europe to JFK on Delta
The only place I've seen load optimization lately is SVO. I haven't done PRG but I've never seen it on BUD. -
F9, WN, Republic stuff
Sounds a lot like the same arguments that American fed TWA... how'd that work out for the TWA pilots? -
-
CO jumpseat phone number?
And when you get to the gate you'll be asked if you're already listed, and when you say no, you work for a different airline, you'll get the sigh and eyeroll. -
'Not as talented'...
Then that F/E, to quote Roger Clemens, "misremembers" part of what happened.... while the FA stuff didn't happen right before T/O it did happen on the taxiway and was listed as reason on the ntsb findings. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmCtJhCPEeQ -
'Not as talented'...
That accident was almost 21 years ago... those that don't learn from accidents are doomed to repeat them. (also note the contributing factors here...this happened just after the Western merger...) Biggest difference I see between the 727 and the Q though is that the 727 had a mechanical failure... -
AirTran Airways announces Wi-Fi service on every flight!!
About 3.5% more than an AirTran pilot will do for his/her retirement .... (10.5% B fund at AirTran vs. 11% at DAL...which is going up to 14% by contracts end. -

Nice job AMR and CAL: FAA Drops New Rest Requirements ! :-(
You may have heard a few whiny DAL pilots, but the majority wanted the rules. DALPA Safety was a big part of pushing these rules. -
DAL junior Pilots sold down the river by NEW MEC
I dunno, compare the difference between our opener for you and your opener for us and then get back to me on that.... .... Seems to me like this settlement was signed off on after one MEC was elected. You keep saying it's Moak's baby, but I know how Moak leads and he's not a go solo type... -
DAL junior Pilots sold down the river by NEW MEC
FDJ2, I've enjoyed your posts on this thread, you've a voice of reason amongst the panic and I agree with you whole heatedly on this particular issue. However your memory of some of our history is a little foggy. 3 1/2 years ago makes it Aug '05. Recalls had been already happening at a good... -
FO Jeff Skiles on Charlie Rose Tonight
I caught that too.... "Many airlines use the company name as a callsign... we use a different word" ...if that wasn't a dig on AWA, I don't know what was. -
DAL junior Pilots sold down the river by NEW MEC
Dude, give me a break. I'm not saying Delta is isolated from any of this but in comparison to the rest of the industry, I'd say they're doing above average right now. -
-
SW has a TA
Name one vote in the last 10 years (actually, 25 years) at Delta that the pilots said no to. Now what percentage of pilots at DAL have a military background (hint, more then half). -
SW has a TA
They may not trust them but they always vote what the union says to do. -
DAL gets ASAP back.
Delta actually turned on their FOQA program again back in November with the blessing of ALPA. No decision has been made yet which software vendor will run the merged FOQA program. -
DAL gets ASAP back.
I'm not going to air dirty laundry here, but I can tell you that Comair had nothing to do with Delta's ASAP going away. Wasn't even one of the straws on the camel's back. (Now Comair dumped their own ASAP program and I'm not familiar with the reasons behind that) -
Delta AE Results
Doubtful... though he could've displaced into a Captain seat... the June '00 hire that's a MD88 Capt held onto his seat -
